Protecting Your Flocks With Solar Studs

Predators are always on the prowl, and no matter how hard you try, you cannot always be there to personally protect your flock of sheep or other livestock that you have. That is why farmers are doing all that they can to provide a safe and protected environment for their livestock and their flocks. Farmers face losses every year due to the loss of life in their livestock. This loss is due to night time predators. There are many precautions that are taken and they are not always effective in protecting the animals from predators. Especially in a humane manner.

The Risk With Livestock

Farmers have many means of protecting their livestock and flocks to prevent any loss of life as well as financial loss. The reality is that all farms are susceptible to various night time predators, and they tend to find ways to penetrate the farm. The measures that are in place are often costly, such as installing more protective fencing. It is also difficult to find predator friendly means of protection that is also actually effective in deterring their attacks. The traditional means of animal protection can be labour intensive, economically unviable and time-consuming.
